Harry Nilsson Lyrics

"Down By The Sea" lyrics


Down by the sea
That's where we wanted to be
With nothing to do

Down by the sea
Don't tell me that is what
You wanted to do

We sold the house, the car, the TV, the dog
Hopin' we were on our way

Down by the sea
Don't tell me that is what
You wanted to do

We had the children in number
John, Phillip, Susan
Alice, Carol, Teddy, Bobby, Jenny
I think we had one too many
But I hope I'm not out of line

Now it's forty years after the laughs at the wedding
And I'm dreading retirement, what would I do?
The children are married
And now the big question is "Was it all worth it?"
And who buries who?
You bury me or I bury you?

So, down by the seaside
From now until we're parted
Each day brings us back where we started
Closer to seeing each other, much closer
And closer to seeing dream come true
Don't tell me that isn't what you wanted to do
